Tue, 19 Feb 2019 19:20:49 GMTPurchased in July of 2014, has been fine until last year. One day the washer would turn on and make like it was going to work, but the load wouldn't start. The door locked, but the cycle wouldn't start. I powered the machine off and back on, but the door stayed locked. I unplugged the washer and plugged it back in, and got my load out. Put it back in, and the washer started.

From then on, the washer has been acting steadily worse. It will mostly not start a load until maybe the 15th time powering off, powering on, start, then nothing, power off, power on, start, nothing, etc. Then it will start and either do the complete cycle or stop at some part of the cycle and not do anything else, typically with a decent amount of water in it.

I've had the springs replaced on the washer a year ago, as we were warned it would start throwing error codes when the load got too heavy. That was $150. Should I look into repairing this problem (from my research, looks to be a bad control board, part only is $218.40), or look into purchasing a new washer? If I should look at a new one, I don't want to spend more than 700, so what should I go with?

Another site suggested replacing the lock mechanism. I'm doubtful that would cause the problem of the machine stopping mid-cycle. That said, this isn't my profession.
Thanks very much.

The code appears again each time I think the washer is looking to drain the tub. Any thing else to try or look at?
Thank you.

\- My Samsung washer died last week and I was able to diagnose a bad PCB (power from wall to filter to main board, but no blinking LEDs on main PCB or Inverter board). I replaced the PCB with a new one, and now I have a red blinking LED on the Main PCB, a green blinking LED on the inverter board BUT when I press the power button I hear a "click" (relay) and then ... nothing. The display does not light up, and I am unable to get the washer to do anything. Once I unplug it, the relay clicks again. I am not able to make the relay click again using the on/off switch. All connections are tight.

Any ideas here, or did my display/controls die too? Sub-PCB - is this display PCB compatible with the main board?? Should be ....

Appreciate any help you can give. I don't want to drop more $$ on the [display board](https://www.appliancepartspros.com/samsung-assy-pcb-sub-dc92-01622j-ap5916803.html) if I don't have to!

The SF was heavily contaminated with detergent sludge to the point that three of the flanges snapped.

Researched an found a replacement part (DC60-00067A). Received the part and it does not fit. Returned and reordered the part and it still didn't fit. Removed the Clutch assembly in the hope it had a part number. It does not. Samsung Tech support and J&J (Samsung parts distributor), no help. Talked to authorized service center. No help. I'm getting desperate. Please HELP. Thank you.

I have a problem with Samsung front load washer WF365BTBGWR/A2. It is 6 years old. Over last several months it became unbalanced during spin cycle and started to vibrate. One day, there was a very loud noise (like explosion) inside during medium speed spin, so I turned it off and took apart. The top balancing weight broke into 2 pieces, and one piece fell down jammed between the side wall and plastic tub. The bottom piece also broke in half, was still in place, but also had multiple cracks. I took the entire machine apart, replaced the balancing weights, both bearings, and the oil seal. Bearings actually did not look bad. After I put it all back together it has become much better, but the problem is that it still vibrates during spin, especially at some intermediate RPMs.

I see that during wash and light spin the metal drum "shakes" as it is out of balance. This is visible even if I just turn the drum by hand if I look at the edge. I don't think I had this issue before, so something must be wrong. However, I did not see any other visible damage putting it together. The bearings are new, the shaft seems straight, the drum looks round, and all supports seem ok. I noticed that when I was putting the tub together the metal drum inside spins without any shakes if I take the large plastic white ring off of it. If I put it on, I feel that it becomes unbalanced.

The plastic ring on the front of the metal drum apparently is another balancing ring. The one I have seems to have rollers inside, some others have fluid. The rollers seem to roll and make some noise when I tilt the ring, but I can't take it apart, it is all sealed. There is no visible damage to it, but if I spin the drum by hands, I hear the rollers move around.

How can I figure out why my metal drum is unbalanced at intermediate RPMs? The problem with this unbalancing is that the machine spins fine only with very light load. If the load is a bit bigger (even half tub) it vibrates and shakes at medium spin.

Thanks.

Sun, 27 Jan 2019 22:43:03 GMTI have samsung washer WA5471ABP/XAA. Is it possible this model doesn’t have a filter for the drain pump ? I can not find one. My last washer had a Little door on the front. My washer is leaving a lot of lint and soap residue on certain color cloths

Fri, 25 Jan 2019 13:16:08 GMTI'm pretty dumbfounded by this. I've changed the pressure switch, cold water inlet valve & control board. There is a test mode on this machine that I've accessed and all the cycles work except the pre-wash fill. Main & hot fills work. Any wisdom you can throw my way is much appreciated.:wall:
